Along with Cllrs for Hempstead & Wigmore Rodney & Diane Chambers I vigorously oppose Maidstone Council’s proposal, to build 2000 houses in Lidsing. As it would have very detrimental effect on Hempstead & put additional pressure on roads, schools, health provision & other services https://t.co/bZKL84kiF5 — PolitiTweet.org
